disposed of.
Take the influences of the surrounding area into account. Do not use the appliance where there is
a risk of fire or explosion.
The appliance may only be used by persons who are familiar with it, have been trained on how to
use it safely and who understand the resulting hazards. The appliance is not intended for use by
children. Children must be supervised in order to ensure that they don’t play with the appliance.
Store appliances in a secure place when not in use. When not in use, appliances must be stored
in a dry, high place or locked away out of reach of children.
2.2 Personal safety
Stay alert, watch what you are doing and use common sense when working with the product.
Do not use the vacuum cleaner while you are tired or under the influence of drugs, alcohol or
medication. A moment of inattention while operating the appliance may result in serious personal injury.
The user and any other persons in the vicinity must wear suitable eye protection, a hard hat, ear
protection, protective gloves, safety footwear and breathing protection while the appliance is in
use or while maintenance work on it is being carried out.
Engage the wheel brakes so that the vacuum cleaner stands securely. If the wheel brakes are
disengaged the vacuum cleaner may run away out of control.

Printed: 04.09.2017 | Doc-Nr: PUB / 5372312 / 000 / 00
English 3
Check the appliance and its accessories for any damage. Guards, safety devices and any slightly
damaged parts must be checked carefully to ensure that they function faultlessly and as intended.
Check that moving parts function faultlessly, without sticking, and that no parts are damaged. In
order to ensure faultless operation of the appliance, all parts must be fitted correctly and must
meet the necessary requirements.
Have the appliance serviced by a qualified repair person using only genuine Hilti spare parts. The
safety of the appliance can thus be maintained.
Always unplug the supply cord from the power outlet when the appliance is not in use (during
breaks), before cleaning and maintenance and before changing the filter or accessories. This
preventive safety measure reduces the risk of starting the appliance accidentally.
Never pull the vacuum cleaner by the supply cord to a new working position. Do not run the wheels
of the vacuum cleaner over the supply cord.
Do not transport the appliance by crane.
2.4 Electrical safety
The plug on the supply cord of the appliance must match the outlet. Do not change the plug in any
way. Do not use adapter plugs with earthed (grounded) appliances. Unmodified plugs and matching
outlets reduce risk of electric shock.
Insert the plug in a suitable earthed/grounded power outlet which has been correctly and safely
installed and is in compliance with local regulations. If you are in doubt about the effectiveness of
the power outlet’s earth/ground connection, have it checked by a qualified specialist.
Avoid body contact with earthed or grounded surfaces such as pipes, radiators, cookers, stoves
and refrigerators. There is an increased risk of electric shock if your body is grounded.
Do not expose the appliance to rain or wet conditions. Water entering an electric appliance will
increase the risk of electric shock.
Check to ensure that the supply cord does not lie in a puddle of water.
Check the appliance’s supply cord at regular intervals and have it replaced by Hilti Service if
damage is found. Check extension cords at regular intervals and replace them if found to be
damaged.
Do not touch the supply cord or extension cord if they are damaged while working. Disconnect
the supply cord plug from the power outlet. Damaged supply cords or extension cords present a risk
of electric shock.
The electric supply cord may be replaced only with a cord of the type specified in the operating
instructions.
Do not abuse the cord. Never use the cord for carrying, pulling or unplugging the appliance. Keep
the cord away from heat, oil, sharp edges or moving parts. Damaged or entangled cords increase
the risk of electric shock.
When operating an electric appliance outdoors, use only extension cords of a type suitable for
outdoor use. Use of an extension cord suitable for outdoor use reduces the risk of electric shock.
In the event of an interruption in the electric supply, switch the appliance off and unplug it from
the power outlet.
Use the power outlet on the appliance only for the purposes described in the operating instructions.
Never operate the appliance when it is dirty or wet. Dust (especially dust from conductive materials)
or dampness adhering to the surface of the appliance may, under unfavorable conditions, lead to electric
shock. Dirty or dusty appliances should thus be checked by Hilti Service at regular intervals,
especially if used frequently for working on conductive materials.
2.5 Workplace
Ensure that the workplace is well lit.
Ensure that the workplace is well ventilated. Exposure to dust at a poorly ventilated workplace may
result in damage to the health.
Keep the workplace tidy. Objects which could cause injury should be removed from the working
area. Untidiness at the workplace can lead to accidents.
Do not operate the appliance in explosive atmospheres, such as in the presence of flammable
liquids, gases or dust. Electric appliances cause sparks which may ignite the dust or fumes.
Use extra care when working on stairs.

10 Disposal
Most of the materials from which Hilti products are manufactured can be recycled. The materials must be
correctly separated before they can be recycled. In many countries, your old tools, machines or appliances
can be returned to Hilti for recycling. Ask Hilti Service or your Hilti representative for further information.
In accordance with the European Directive on waste electrical and electronic equipment and its implemen-
tation in conformance with national law, electric tools or appliances that have reached the end of their life
must be collected separately and returned to an environmentally compatible recycling facility.
Do not dispose of electric appliances together with household waste.
Drilling slurry
Disposal of drilling slurry directly into rivers, lakes or the sewerage system without suitable pretreatment
presents environmental problems.
Ask the local public authorities for information about current regulations.
We recommend the following pretreatment:
Collect the drilling slurry (for example, using a wet-type vacuum cleaner).
Allow the drilling slurry to settle and dispose of the solid material at a construction waste disposal site
(addition of a flocculent may accelerate the settling process).
The remaining water (alkaline, pH value greater than 7) must be neutralized by the addition of an acidic
neutralizing agent or diluted with a large volume of water before it is allowed to flow into the sewerage
system.
Drilling dust
Dispose of the drilling dust collected by the vacuum cleaner in accordance with the applicable national
regulations.
